WHAT IS BUSINESS CONSULTING?
Business consultants dive into your company to understand your processes, procedures and company culture and then make recommendations on how to improve every facet of your operation.
Consultants typically have experience in assisting struggling or failing businesses and can use their experience to identify what is working in your favor and what you may be struggling with.
KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BUSINESS COACHING & BUSINESS CONSULTING
People often use business consulting and business coaching interchangeably, and while they do have several similarities, they have some key differences as well.
In business coaching, a coach focuses on the business owner and tries to help that person understand the responsibilities and know-how of running a business. The coaching is personal, trying to create habits and spread knowledge of how to succeed in the business world.
Business consulting is less personal and looks at a company’s processes and procedures to determine what changes can be made to positively impact the bottom line. Consulting might recommend new machinery, personnel or office changes rather than changing a person’s behavior in the workplace like coaching would.
WHEN SHOULD YOU HIRE A BUSINESS COACH OR A CONSULTANT?
Hiring a business coach or consultant is typically most beneficial at an inflection point in your company.
A coach or consultant can be extremely valuable when the company is starting out, as they can help build a foundation for success and help you through the struggles of establishing the company.
After the company is established, business coaches or consultants can come in when you are looking to make a big change, like moving into a new territory, offering new products or simply looking to grow your profits to a new level.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM A BUSINESS CONSULTANT?
Business consultants are experts who should use their knowledge of the business world and, ideally, your industry, to provide real feedback and steps you can take to improve your company’s processes, services, products and/or procedures.
Consultants will first examine the totality of your business and make recommendations based on what to change, what to eliminate and what to expand.
